This has been covered for a long while now, and since (Oneiric, I think) you should no longer need to restart anything for the connection to be registered. If it still doesn't work, it would be a different bug. A reboot is only required after *installing* the VPN, it doesn't need to be done for each new connection ;) Please, if you're still getting this issue regardless of the version of Ubuntu in use, please file a *new*, *separate* bug report to make sure we can cover any possible case affecting you and really make sure *everything* is fixed.

Solution for an update-to-date Ubuntu 10.04 is to reboot your machine after installing or importing your vpnc connection. For adavanced users: Instead of rebooting you can also restart network- manager and the dbus daemon.

You know, I cannot understand why anyone says that the patch produced in comment #3 works for folks. The syntax is totally wrong - it's at_console=true, not user=at_console. I looked up what at_console does, and as it turns out at_console was originally created to use RedHat's pam_console... which of course is specific to RedHat. Ubuntu gets around this by using libpam-foreground, and from the following bug report at Debian http://bugs.debian.org/cgi- bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=422349 I believe that there's been a patch done to dbus to get this working. I guess my next question is: if you aren't using at_console (or pam_console, or pam_forground), then how does ConsoleKit do this? ** Bug watch added: Debian Bug tracker #422349 http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=422349 -- NetworkManager.vpn fails -- nm-vpn-connection.c.900: NeedSecrets https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/360818 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 360818] Re: NetworkManager.vpn fails -- nm-vpn-connection.c.900: NeedSecrets
OK, so I'm trying to work this out. NeedSecrets - now correct me if I'm wrong here, but from what I've read while doing some research, this is an error that's occuring because network-manager can't get access to the relevant passwords for the VPN connection! So in my travails into how it seems that NetworkManager does things (someone please pipe in here if I'm wrong), but this is how I understand that it works: 1. You bring up the network manager interface to connect to the VPN 2. nm then looks at gconf at System/Network/Connections/ and looks for the entry that matches the name, uuid and the service plugin name (?? is this right?) 3. It can then prompt for credentials, or it looks at Gnome-keyring. So therefore, I guess that the following need to be checked: 1. Check what the uuid is for your VPN connection in gconf 2. Now go to Applications - Accessories - Passwords and Encryption Keys 3. Find the key for this connection (it should says something like password for VPN connection name If you can't find it, then possibly there is something wrong with retrieving the secrets needed for the VPN?

Anybody who still has this issue in Lucid, could you please open a new bug about it, preferably using the 'ubuntu-bug network-manager' command, so we can get full details of what is going on? Please make sure you add how you got that system to Lucid, that is, whether it was a clean install or an upgrade; and if it was an upgrade, from what other version of Ubuntu. Chris, you pretty much got it right. The passwords currently saved for VPNs need to be verified. If there are some, you should be able to delete them for NM to ask about them again. Another thing to try could be to create a new user, and create the connection from scratch in that user to see if it can be completed. As there is no patch attached that can reasonably and provably fix these issues (and given we've had multiple reports of this working properly in and after karmic), I've unsubscribed ubuntu-reviewers for now. -- NetworkManager.vpn fails -- nm-vpn-connection.c.900: NeedSecrets https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/360818 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Can anyone confirm that this bug has actually been fixed in any version of network-manager-vpnc or in a related package? All I can see is that Ronan F marked this bug as fixed, but I fail to see any mention of the actual fix or version. Version 0.7.997 was released on 2009-12-08, but it doesn't seem to contain any obvious bugfixes related to this issue. This bug hit me two times on karmic with OpenVPN during the last week and both times I went through the edit connections dialogue to select the same user certificate that has already been selected before. No other parameters were changed. After hitting Apply I was able to establish VPN connections again. Could have been pure luck, though, taking into account all the other ways that seem to have helped other people. -- NetworkManager.vpn fails -- nm-vpn-connection.c.900: NeedSecrets https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/360818 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 360818] Re: NetworkManager.vpn fails -- nm-vpn-connection.c.900: NeedSecrets
Hi there, Attached patch work-arounds the problem with OpenVPN. Looking at the source, I'm puzzled, cos' line 1000 of Karmic Koalas nm- openvpn-service.c does validations of set #1 of parameters, whereas line 1004 does validation of set #2. The problem is that these sets are divergent, so either one doesnt provide any secret parameters (hence the No VPN secrets! error), or receives an error that such parameter is invalid. I dont know if my reasoning is correct, I dont know why it worked intermittently - I just wanted my OpenVPN back :-) Please forward my remarks upstream if you find this helpful.

I look at nm_setting_vpn_get_secret.
nm_setting_vpn_get_secret (NMSettingVPN *setting, const char *key)
{
g_return_val_if_fail (NM_IS_SETTING_VPN (setting), NULL);
return (const char *) g_hash_table_lookup (NM_SETTING_VPN_GET_PRIVATE
(setting)-secrets, key);
}
It's return TRUE in one case, if setting-secrets has a key. NULL we can get in
two cases, if 'settings' has a wrong type and if there is no key in 'settings
- secrets'. You say that setting already verified, than something wrong with
settings - secrets.
May be something wrong with rights when reading secrets?

[Bug 360818] Re: NetworkManager.vpn fails -- nm-vpn-connection.c.900: NeedSecrets
I first posted this accidently to a duplicate of this bug... I experience this problem too, and its getting really anying. Therefor I started to debug this problem by myself. If have no idea of NetworkManager by grepping through the source I found out that the message is generated from nm-openvpn-service.c. I compiled the network-manager-openvpn service by cloning it from the git repository and install some additional packages (namely libdbus-glib-1-dev libnm-glib-dev intltool libtool autoconf libgtk2.0-dev libglade2-dev libgconf2-dev libgnome-keyring-dev). Then I executed this... ./autogen.sh --prefix=/usr/bin/ --libexecdir=/usr/lib/network-manager-openvpn/ make This then compiled the service and i could stat it by invoking sudo ./src/nm-openvpn-service The applet then uses this newly compiled service. I added some debug messages and found this out: The function real_connect calls nm_connection_get_setting, which contains the settings for the choosen vpn. Later then, the settings are verified, and it fails when he tries to verify the secret. Even if there is no secret set at the applet, the applet sets a secret property with the name no-secret to true. I added right after the nm_connection_get_setting call this code: tmp = nm_setting_vpn_get_secret (s_vpn, NM_OPENVPN_KEY_NOSECRET); nm_info(No Secert Property: %s, tmp); Each time when it worked, this code returns that: ** Message: info No Secert Property: true But most of the time, everytime it fails, this code returns that: ** Message: info No Secert Property: (null) The property is sometimes set, and sometimes not! I do have no idea why this can happen, but I suggest there is a race condition somewhere. I would have to debug the nm_connection_get_setting, which belongs to libnm-util1. Would nice if a developer with more know how in this area could have a look why this property is not set sometimes.

Just to further muddy the waters :) I use openvpn, no private password. Been working pretty reliably on 8.10 and then 9.04 for a year. 9.10 was fine until most recent update, when no secrets problem popped up. I was studying the synaptic history to see if I could maybe guess which package broke things, and I noticed kernel updated. I had been on 2.6.28-16 (unintentionally, had set default to 2 in grub conf a while back and forgot to reset to 0). Today brought in 2.6.31-15, which pushed 2.6.31-14 to #2 and that's when things broke.

network-manager-openvpn was working fine under Jaunty, but since updating to Karmic it doesn't. However, I got the opposite behavior of the workaround listed -- with a root shell open, it connects properly; without one, it fails with the 'No VPN secrets!' error. The at_console patch in #80 does fix it for me (after rebooting), but people say that's wrong... network-manager-vpnc does exhibit the behavior described (connects w/o root shell, fails w/ a root shell), without any at_console entry in dbus, so it does appear that the openvpn issues are probably a separate bug. -- NetworkManager.vpn fails -- nm-vpn-connection.c.900: NeedSecrets https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/360818 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I've just done a fresh install with network-manager-openvpn on a laptop. Adding my keys to create a new connection fails with the Need Secrets message immediately after installation. I can confirm a succesful connection after a reboot without applying the dbus patch I used on my other machines. I will post back if it fails for me at some point, but the most consistent element in the behaviour experienced by most of us is that a new nm openvpn configration does not work until after a reboot. At this point the gnome keyring tool opens and asks to give access to the application. I chose to allow it to remain authorised for future connections.

[Bug 360818] Re: NetworkManager.vpn fails -- nm-vpn-connection.c.900: NeedSecrets
Could some of you check your config file: does it have an IP address for remote? Or a host name? My openvpn config is as follows: no password; single user (i.e. not for everyone); remote site is an IP address first (our office wifi is VPN protected), then a hostname (when I'm connected to the internet). I still have problems setting it up, but those may be related to my DNS setup being flakey. I see that first the DNS is dropped by Networkmanager; then is complains that it can't connect - well, how could you, without DNS :) Please note that the DNS problem itself is not related, that is due to a local problem. But the result of it (i.e. DNS changing, then OpenVPN kicking in) could be experienced by others.

I am seeing it on a fresh install of Karmic with openvpn configuration from Jaunty. Recreating the connection with my original keys makes no difference. Adding at_console permissions to /etc/dbus-1/system.d/nm-openvpn-service.conf as described above by Patrick Healy for vpnc on 2009-04-18 fixes the issue for me for now. His solution for vpnc applied to openvpn followed by a restart removed the problem. A new bug has been opened specifically for openvpn in karmic as bug number 453807, but it appears to be the same behaviour whichever vpn plugin is in use.

Me too. Karmic beta, fully up-to-date. Trying to connect using
network-manager-vpnc, the message is that the VPN service stopped
unexpectedly.
I installed yesterday, and yesterday a reboot fixed the problem. From
yesterday, I have a number of messages in auth.log as follows:
{{{

Today I am unable to connect with the same bubble message, but nothing
in auth.log. Today, I have messages in daemon.log like the following:

I couldn't find any root shells, and the at_console thing didn't help
either. I got messages like the above both before and after applying
the at_console patch and rebooting.

I have this same problem with Jaunty 64-bit and a new PPTP connection. I did not have it available for all users. I fixed it by restarting NetworkManager.

[Bug 360818] Re: NetworkManager.vpn fails -- nm-vpn-connection.c.900: NeedSecrets
My experience on my up to date Jaunty system matches that of #23 from Mike Crowe. After installing network-manager-openvpn I initially got VPN Connection failed because there were no valid VPN secrets back from the GUI. After playing with the password settings to try and work around that, the connection attempts just quietly failed with NetworkManager: nm-vpn-connection.c.900: NeedSecrets failed in the daemon.log. All I had to do was reboot in order to fix this. After that, I got the Allow application access to keyring? prompt I remembered from the last system where this worked properly, and then everything worked fine. So for the network-manager-openvpn incarnation of this problem at least, a reboot seems the first thing to try after setting things up if the connection fails with a NeedSecrets failure. -- NetworkManager.vpn fails -- nm-vpn-connection.c.900: NeedSecrets https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/360818 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
